Easy ideas. I like 2,3,4,5.1 the best.
The principle of the title really grabs me, and it’s how and why I practice Taiji: I love it.

Good post Chris. I’m not a huge fan of walking just for the sake of it, although I do a reasonable amount daily due to my work commute. I have to get a train to work which is a 20 minute walk from my house. Then when the train arrives it’s another 20 minute walk to my office. Then it’s the same on the way back from work which means I get a good 80 minutes of walking per day. I also get the added bonus of jogging and sprinting on the days which I am running late

“Get a dog” could also be added to your list. Taking care of your dog forces you get out and about and a nice by-product is that you walk a lot.

If you don’t mind, I have a short post on why a dog is a good thing: http://losedoggieweight.blogspot.com/2008/09/joy-of-running-on-full-belly.html

Hi Chris, yes Apple Cider Vinegar is something I find hard to take due to the acidity of it (taste). With honey its not so bad. My brother takes it every day. I like to drink alot of green tea. I also like to chew on the green tea leaves left over after the brew. Not a bad taste and it feels like its the right thing to do instead of throwing them straight out.

I’m looking forward to moving out of Bangkok next year to the beach. Long beach runs and local markets abound. Bring it on!!

Great tips! I used to do all of these things religiously when I lived in a big city. It’s a little harder now to cycle that I have to commute 20 miles to and from work, but it’s well worth it to live at the beach

Another easy tip that I use is to always take the stairs. In fact I used to do this during my lunch hour when I worked on the 25th floor…ouch!

@ ND: 10000 steps a day thats about 5 Miles…. me if I’m wrong but Its definitely doable guess it would be interesting to grab a pedometer for a few days and see how I do….. Funny about the music I love doing the same thing, walking with my iPod is something I look forward to doing!

Good call on walking. Studies suggest walking 10000 steps a day to manage your weight. A good way to make sure you are walking enough is using a padometer.

I love short walks either late in the day or early in the morning (especially at weekends) listening to low beat music (which I can’t listen to while exercising).
